Chemistry is a conceptual subject and, in order to explain many of
the concepts, teachers use models to describe the microscopic world
and relate it to the macroscopic properties of matter. This can
lead to problems, as a student's every-day experiences of the world
and use of language can contradict the ideas put forward in
chemical science. These titles have been designed to help tackle
this issue of misconceptions. Part 1 deals with the theory, by
including information on some of the key alternative conceptions
that have been uncovered by research; ideas about a variety of
teaching approaches that may prevent students acquiring some common
alternative conceptions; and general ideas for assisting students
with the development of appropriate scientific conceptions. Part 2
provides strategies for dealing with some of the misconceptions
that students have, by including ready to use classroom resources
including copies of probes that can be used to identify ideas held
by students; some specific exercises aimed at challenging some of
the alternative ideas; and classroom activities that will help
students to construct the chemical concepts required by the
curriculum. Used together, these two books will provide a good
theoretical underpinning of the fundamentals of chemistry. Trialled
in schools throughout the UK, they are suitable for teaching ages
11-18.
For courses in introductory, preparatory, and basic chemistry. Help
students master math and problem solving they will use in their
future chemistry classes Basic Chemistry introduces Introductory
Chemistry students to the essential scientific and mathematical
concepts of general chemistry while providing the scaffolded
support they need. The text uses accessible language and a moderate
pace to provide an easy-to-follow approach for first-time chemistry
students and those hoping to renew their study of chemistry. With
Basic Chemistry, Bill and Karen Timberlake make the study of
chemistry an engaging and positive experience for today's students
by relating the structure and behavior of matter to real life. The
6th Edition presents a new visual program that incorporates sound
pedagogical principles from educational research on the way today's
students learn and retain knowledge. The text's applied focus helps
students connect chemistry with their interests and potential
careers through applications tied to real-life topics in health,
the environment, and medicine. The new edition strengthens its
emphasis on problem solving with additional end-of-chapter
Challenge problems and new assignable practice problems that ensure
students master the basic quantitative skills and conceptual
understanding needed to succeed in this course and to continue
their studies in the field. Also available as a Pearson eText or
packaged with Mastering Chemistry Pearson eText is a simple-to-use,
mobile-optimized, personalized reading experience that can be
adopted on its own as the main course material. It lets students
highlight, take notes, and review key vocabulary all in one place,
even when offline. Seamlessly integrated videos and other rich
media engage students and give them access to the help they need,
when they need it. Educators can easily share their own notes with
students so they see the connection between their eText and what
they learn in class - motivating them to keep reading, and keep
learning. Mastering combines trusted author content with digital
tools and a flexible platform to personalize the learning
experience and improve results for each student. Built for, and
directly tied to the text, Mastering Chemistry enables an extension
of learning, allowing students a platform to practice, learn, and
apply outside of the classroom. Note: You are purchasing a
standalone book; Pearson eText and Mastering Chemistry do not come
packaged with this content. Students, ask your instructor for the
correct package ISBN and Course ID. Instructors, contact your
Pearson representative for more information. If your instructor has
